What we found

1 critical 1 to fix 2 opportunity
✕

Likely abandoned

Critical

No update in 96 months. wp.org search heavily penalizes stale plugins, and users avoid them.

What to do: Ship a compatibility release to reset the freshness signal.

!

Downloads are cooling

Needs work

30-day download momentum is -14% while the Blocks category median is +11%. The decline is steeper than the market, which points at something plugin-specific.

What to do: A coordinated content + outreach push can re-ignite installs.

↗

Review volume is thin

Opportunity

Only 1 rating. A handful of reviews makes your star average fragile and weakens trust at install time.

What to do: Run a structured in-plugin review prompt and a review campaign.

↗

Readme fails 2 of 8 AI readiness checks

Opportunity

AI assistants recommend what they can quote. Failing: names what it works with and headings and lists. Names no plugin, service or platform it works with.

What to do: Rewrite the readme so each failed check passes: say the job in the first line, answer real questions in the FAQ, name who it is for and what it works with, and use headings and lists. For the same check on your plugin's own website, run the free AI visibility scan from AgentVania.
